Penn State added as defendant in Paterno v. NCAA

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The family and estate of Joe Paterno and others are adding Penn State as a “nominal defendant” in a lawsuit against the NCAA over the university’s penalties for the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal.

The amended complaint filed Wednesday in county court near State College also provides details about the difficulties Paterno’s son and another former Penn State assistant coach have had in finding work.
